    I don't believe in the church that claims Apostolic succession. It is a Satanic fraud - a counterfeit church. No way will I allow a fraudulent church teach me anything.

    No. According to John's gospel, the Holy Spirit is the successor to Jesus.

    The true church was not founded on Peter at all. Jesus called Peter a stone, and the Rock that the church is built on is the revelation that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the Living God. Satan has misquoted that Scripture to deceive millions into believing that the fraudulent church is the...

    No way would I allow a pedaphile, adulterous, fornicating priest teach me anything to do with the gospel.

    Peter was never recognised as the head of the church. Church history proves that Apostolic succession in the RCC is a myth. It never happened; it is a fraud perpetuated by the church hierarchy to deceive people to believe that it is the true church. Holy Bride! Ha! adulterous popes...

    Which true church is this? the JWs? Mormons? They think they are the true church. What about the Charismatic church that I once went to in a city I lived in? They believed they were the true body of Christ and that all the other churches in the city should become part of "the local church"...

    Jesus said that it was not to be the church that will teach us all things. He said it is the indwelling Holy Spirit ("the anointing") that will do that. There are thousands on their way to hell because they are allowing Kenny Copeland's church to teach them his interpretation of Scripture.

    Roman Catholic doctrine. Many godly martyrs were burned alive because they dared to reject the church's interpretation of the gospel and to believe in justification by faith for themselves.

    Bible Translation Study

    If the early church fathers quoted passages of Scripture that are not found in our earliest (4th century) manuscripts, then we have to assume that they were quoting from manuscripts that are no longer available to us. And if they were quoting from the manuscripts available to them, then they...

    Bible Translation Study

    All we have to do now that we have all these great translations, is to actually do the Bible so that we can see the power of God operating to achieve what Jesus was anointed for, and how that anointing is passed on to genuine Christian believers through the Holy Spirit to do the works that...

    One of the reasons why the church went against women ministry was in opposition to Montanism with its female prophetesses. It equated Montanism with heresy and domination of women in its ministry. The church had the notion that if women dominated, it would lead to a departure from orthodoxy.

    It is interesting to note that Tertullian was the first church father to prohibit women's ministry in the churches.

    Saddened to hear of your medical issues. There is a verse that could be encouraging: "Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord heals them of them all". It is in times like these that being a faithful believer is what it is all about.

    The Only Way To Get Saved From Hell.

    I am so glad that you're putting your money where your mouth is and are inviting demon possessed, murderers, felons, homeless orphans, food stealing thieves and liberals home for dinner on a regular basis. Also, that you are visiting sick people in hospital and prison every Saturday and...

    It is interesting to note that Augustine originally adopted a Cessationist stance and communicated that to the hierarchy in Rome. It was only after he witnesses miracles that he could not deny that were of God that he changed his stance and pleaded with the church authorities to acknowledge...

    My point is that theological bias is always an issue when translating or interpreting Scripture. A glaring example is Church History, where the miraculous has been excluded by most historians to make it appear that the miraculous happened only in the Apostolic Age and ceased afterward. Satan...

    Bible Translation Study

    I think that the best Greek and Hebrew scholars to compile a translation of the Bible would be those who are not Christians, and therefore not biased according to a particular theology. They would be totally professional and work to achieve the highest standard of accuracy. They wouldn't...

    I think that life is too serious to take it seriously.
